Great video! Informative, yet concise, and not all about you. I star the places that I'm interested in on Google maps, and you make it easy by clearly identifying each place. Good luck with your channel. You deserve more viewers!

Bir Türk olarak yazıyorum. Yemek, kahvaltı, misafir kültürü çok önemlidir bizim için. Sahip olduğumuz herşeyin en iyisini misafirler için ayırırız . Onlar için oda , yatak en iyi yemeğimiz misafirler içindir. Çünkü paylaşmak güzeldir ❤

Well done and really helpful! I know the neighborhood to book my airing now! What are your favorite non-schengen cities and countries? I used to love to escape to Croatia until they joined. I've spent a couple months in Albania (Durres and Tirana) and especially liked Tirana. This fall I'm going to Montenegro (Podgorica) for a bit. Have a great day there!

[@camdendavid]

Hmmm, great question. We also used to use Croatia hahah. I definitely love spending time in Turkey when trying to reset those schengen days. And even though it's far, we often use South Africa. Haven't made it down to Albania quite yet but have heard wonderful things!

@@camdendavid Albania and Kosova! You will love it here.

That Airbnb has a 90 day minimum stay 🤣

[@carolinacadabra8278]

I think that is probably a response to the Turkish government’s recent crackdown on short term rentals.

Hmmm, I’m sure you could reach out to the host and stay for less. I was only there for a month 😄
